Time to Start

Hi all you readers out there,

I'm back and its time to start that Lv3 History work but I kinda of forgotten it a bit, so I need to review my work first....... and done, I've looked at my past work but I'm not sure how to  blog about the effects European theories had on the native people of New Zealand, The Maori, analytical.

I guess I should go through the theory's first


Belief/theory
Background
Main ideas
How would this affect European behaviour?
How would this affect Maori behaviour?
“Noble Savage”
Rousseau - philosophy
Europeans see themselves as corrupt
Treat them like an endangered species
Ignore them
Jealous
Might be frustrated/angry
“Ignoble Savage”
Cannibalism
Europeans being attacked
Maori are bloodthirsty and not to be trusted
Maori blamed more; Europeans wary of Maori
Scared
More violent towards Maori
Maori feel more powerful
Protect themselves more
Monogenism
Biblical
Single ancestor, but some people are better than others  
See Maori as distant relations
Treat Maori worse
Some feel obliged to ‘help Maori’
Some might accept this

Polygenism
Self-made theories?
Every race is a different breed of human being
Maori will fall back to their old ways given the chance
No point ‘helping’ Maori

Social Darwinism
Origin of Species by Charles Darwin
Strong races survive
Maori are a ‘dying race’
Hard racism
Hierarchy of races
Leave Maori to die off
Probably Maori would not engage with this idea
Fatal Impact
Social 
Looking at what Europeans bring to NZ
Without contact with Europeans, Maori would not be in a bad state
Might make Europeans change the way they behave
Might be racist towards Europeans?
Aryan Maori
Edward Tregear The Aryan Maori 
Maori are Aryan
Racial harmony
Similar to Monogenism
With ‘master-race’ tones
Accepted this theory (Peter Buck)
Anti-Capitalist Maori
Urbanisation
Maori can’t cope with move to urban areas
Polygenism in 20th Century
Anger
“Once Were Warriors”
Maori Battalion
Maori only good at fighting
Stereotyping Maori


all of these theory are based on trust, faith and semi to complete lack of evidence (kinda like a world famous book) so if based on flimsy foundation why did Europeans believe in this theories, while its important to understand that every European who came to New Zealand didn't believe in every and or any of these theories. Now back to the question, for the Europeans who did believe in these or a theory, why believe them. these theories were backed up by or from famous people and influences who the Europeans trusted. (see background column)
As pointed out by Lv3 History Class mates it kinda like sheep flowing the most influential and trustworthy information source that they believe in. so even before coming to New Zealand Europeans could have already set there theory's in stone.
Now these theory are basically the same to each other on some levels but I can see that some of them as building of each other. for example 'Monogenism' and the 'Aryan Maori' both see humans as decedents of a single ancestor and that the Europeans should help the Maori's

Hey faithful Readers (Hahahaha)

It been along time since my last post where I talked about how it was long time since the post before then. I'm back to once again do a school project this time its for my level 3 History class were I have create a blog post which reflects on the European theories had on the native people of New Zealand, The Maori. I have to connect similar features of the theories, and any conclusions that I have come to, while trying to figure out prioritize/rate the theories. Making sure the post is going beyond merely explaining the ideas.

so lets see if I can do this

Sincerely,

Beckm.mar

It's ironic the last thing i post is I have returned, and than post nothing for about a year.
But that's because I’ve lost uses of this blog, I’ve finished my rain water and DTY projects,
the only reason I logged back on is to see how many people just happened upon my blog,
and wow it's skyrocketed.
well this might be the last post for another year
or I might come on again tomorrow so you will have to see won’t you?

I have returned

hey to all my faithful bloggers and people who just pressed the next button (so basically just the second ones:( )
I've been off blogging for about a week dued to a camping trip, and the thing of camping is to get away from technology. (not my idea)
but with this return i bring sad news. i have only about 4 more days left at school (that's not the sad part) so i won't be continuing the rain water harvesting idea.(also not that sad) because once the holidays roll around i will not be bothered to do it. i mean who wants to do work they don't have to do on the holidays. i would much more prefer to sleep in until 11(like my sister doing now because she finished earlier then me. lucky her)
well i suppose that i better get to it then. :)

Prepared

hey viewers
I wasn’t really prepared for this day's reason, of why you should rainwater harvest. Because I was busy with the blogging contest thing. But my teacher has given me an idea for today’s topic. So let's say a really bad earthquake happened, (and let's say you can’t get water because the pipes or however you're water get transport is broken ) how will you be able to get a drink, easy just go to your water tank and turn on the tap. Or if you don’t have a tap because it's connected up to your house but it is not a good idea to go back in, or you didn’t install one. just poke a hole in it and get your banked water. (of cause i recommend you boil it) and if you're water tanks dried up. you can either wait for emergency services. Or just say at least it can't get any worse, to get more water. (if it doesn’t start to rain and something worse does happen, I can not be blamed in any way.)
So there's my today's reason on why you should rainwater harvest. :)


Ps

You should probable earthquake proof your water tank. Just a thought. :)

Rain Water Harvest: Water Tank Prices

Water tanks prices range from (nz$) 30,000 to 850 dollars (in NZ money because that's where i’m based and most of my viewers are New Zealanders) of course varying prices due to literage you can even get under ground tanks if you want so no need for it taking up space just shove it under the ground and on your way to environmentally friendliness. Another quote I’ve heard is the earth has looked out for you so look out for the earth in return.


Here our some water tanks sites if you want to look (there all NZ based)
